For those of you who don't know-- Bill was editor of the CDS's magazine for a while, put tremendous effort forth with www.cavedivinghistory.com, assisted with the production of the Cave Diving Articles and Opionions book, has helped at several workdays as well as other things, I'm sure.
This survey hardly took any time at all, it's not much to ask.
It took me about 15 minutes to complete.Quote:

Anyone else uncomfortable giving out this information?
I didn't have any problems.Quote:

You didn't give your name, and IP addresses cannot be traced to their individual owner very easily without a search warrant to the internet provider or access to server logs on a site you logged into (look for a match), especially not if you're using a public IP (coffee shop, office location, etc).Quote:

I would gladly take the survey and trust Bill with the answers. He's one of the good guys.
Aww, go ahead and take it, get all of the ladies to, the machine is just like a party in San Fransisco, can't tell if you have boy parts or girl parts.Quote:

I didn´t even know that words like "dyadic" and "alexithymia" exist in the German vocabulary, but after I read on wikipedia, that it often occurs in people who are without a partner, without religious affiliation, unemployed and of low socioeconomic status I realized that they were talking about me.
So of course I will take part and I encourage everybody to do so as well. I know Bill and I´m sure those data are safe!
Besides it is an honor to help him to get his Ph.D. degree!
When do I get the certificate to submit to HR?
